The biology of satellite cells and telomeres in human skeletal muscle: effects of aging and physical activity
Scandinavian Journal of Medicine and Science in Sports, 09/22/09
Kadi F et al. – New insights suggest that telomeres in skeletal muscle are dynamic structures under the influence of their environment. When satellite cells are heavily recruited for regenerative events as in the skeletal muscle of athletes, telomere length has been found to be either dramatically shortened or maintained and even longer than in non–trained individuals. This suggests the existence of mechanisms allowing the control of telomere length in vivo.
